International organised crime and Mafia: new threats on human security?
The use of the Atomic bomb against Japan in 1945, and the proliferation of this awesome weapon made the idea of war obsolescence or an anachronism.
The unprecedented wave of communication known as Globalisation had made states porous and permeable. They are clearing the way for new actors in international security. These two events had a strong influence on International Relations thought. In other words, “the world events act to stimulate theoretical debate, and these events if they are sufficiently dramatic, can move the centre of gravity of the field” ( Doyle, Ikenberry, p 278).

With the end of the cold war, the dramatic demise of the Soviet threat, many scholars and politicians emerged heralding the new peace dawn. F, Fukuyama for instance said; ”I feel in my self and in the eyes of others around me powerful nostalgia for the time when history existed”(Jentleson, p705). The previous US president G W Bush Senior- was much more optimist – introduced some thing new called” a New World Order when diverse nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind”( ibid, p48).

The question of women and Islam has attracted a lot of interest in academics. Concerns like how one understands the situation of women in a more patriarchal religion like Islam have taken centre in many debates. But sadly the experience of Muslim women is often seen as same with Muslim men or other women. Either gender over determines or community over determines the Muslim women’s question. Whatever work is done on Muslim women, religion is seen as dominating every aspect. While studying Muslim women, undue emphasis is given to Muslim personal law. There is also a tendency to homogenise the category of Muslim women.

Abstract:

Terrorism is one of the serious global crimes which targeted the Algerian population and his country at the beginning of the last decade of the last century, leading to draw a criminal policy that brought together the rules of criminal law and the principles of peace reconciliation and the embodiment of bilateral, regional and international conventions; all interact with the on-the-field control to the remnants of terrorism, which generate an efficacy of Algerian politics in this area that has become the focus of all countries and authorities.
